Today we are pleased to announce the release of version 3.5.0 of our CommandBox Docker images, which contains upgrades to the underlying CommandBox engine.

Most significantly, this release upgrades the CommandBox binary to 5.5.1, which uses Lucee 5.3.9 as the underlying CFML engine. In addition, this release changes the underlying base image over to use the eclipse-temurin image builds.

Hot off the presses, ColdBox Elixir v4 is now available on NPM. Please check out the Migration Guide for help upgrading.

If you are in this technical debt boat and want a quick win and recover some ground in the technical debt war, then this tutorial is for you.
